Consumer Narrative
I decided to check my credit report one day, because I could get any credit from an organization. I was immediately livid to know that someone pulled my credit over 20 times and I havent authorized it, this has absolutely ruined my credit. I have contacted the FTC and have fraud alert placed upon my credit report. Im a victim of Identity theft. This is stressful not being able to get any credit. I havent given any verbal or any written permission for credit inquires to be placed on my credit by the following companies. Some companies have pulled more than once, this is ridiculous.
